Abstract :
Microwave has been up to now the preferred technology for electronic road fee collection (EFC). In the last years new technologies came to EFC arena: infrared and location satellite based systems plus cellular networks. This paper tries to present these technologies and a comparison not only based on performance but also cost-effective
